GAB has been around for a while, they're made by KYB. They're good but you're better off spending your money on the newer coilovers that are US based so you can t rebuild/revalve easily.

Are these new or used?

I've heard of gab sports. but why? when there's so many other brands easily available.

probably not gonna slam it, just want a no gap drop. too much bs comes with slamming. worse comes to worse i can always get stiffer springs in the back.
